Why You Don’t Work in Agriculture Anymore

Written by NAMA on Thursday, June 12, 2014 , 9:16 am

Today, consumer perceptions about everything from animal welfare and antibiotics to GMOs and government regulations can have a substantial impact on farming operations of all kinds and sizes. If agricultural marketers hope to shift how consumers see things, it will first require a shift in our own thinking.

“Why you don’t work in agriculture anymore,” showcases the very latest consumer research from Sullivan Higdon & Sink’s influential FoodThink studies and delves into real-world examples that will both inform and inspire agricultural marketers. 

Presented by Ali Mahaffy, SVP, Brand Management, and Samantha Scantlebury, Brand Strategist, of Sullivan Higdon & Sink.

Ali Mahaffy has more than 20 years of experience in marketing on both the client and agency side. Today, Ali helps lead Sullivan Higdon & Sink and helped establish its food value chain practice which includes clients such as Cargill, Dairy Farmers of America, Merial Limited and Sonic Drive-In. The agency also works with leading ag-related brands such as Tractor Supply Co. and Trimble Agriculture. 

Samantha’s interest in agriculture began at the family dinner table (her father owns a grain silo technology company, and her brother is on the path to a plant sciences degree). As a brand planner and FoodThink researcher, Samantha dives deep into what’s driving today’s food conversations and applies her insights for clients such as Borden Cheese, Cache Valley Dairy, VFT Global and Granola Jones.
